EXCL: HMT is looking at alternative proposals on IHT for this year’s budget. “There are more than rumours about potential changes to the threshold, which would inevitably mean the people we’ve been trying to get off the hook would get off the hook” https://t.co/wFQL5yqM3r

Always good to test drive new chemistry. Useful activity on this resistant IRG from #Fundatis after a good early (burnt off) flush and drilling into ideal conditions.

The utter idiocy of deciding that the basis of our food system and our landscape management is ‘irrelevant’ because it’s now done so cheap it looks small on a spreadsheet And forgetting we all literally die without it is the kind of crack-headed BS that’s got us here
If you lined up and shot all the economists this morning - it would be a long time before most people would notice If you lined up and shot all the farmers then you’d have food system crisis within two weeks, riots within a month, and societal collapse in three months
